The consortium proposed new academic programs to meet evolving student and workforce needs. Committed to diversity and inclusion, the WCWC has also emphasized competency-based education and the integration of diverse curricula.

The West Central Wisconsin Consortium Collection includes program proposals for academic majors and minors, annual reports summarizing activities and outcomes, and materials from conferences. Additionally, the collection features policy and planning documents outlining the consortium's goals, reports on minority retention efforts, and information on collaborative educational initiatives such as competency-based education and international programs. These materials include but are not limited to meeting minutes, administrative paperwork, financial documents, and brochures.
